Excellent care and quality customer service!!! Love the staff and their attentiveness to my needs. I highly recommend this facility!!!!

I love love my dentist. I have a flossing problem and he always is on me about it. He cares about my teeth!!! Who doesn't love a nice dentist right? I've been using them for 5+ years read more

Had an appointment scheduled, double checked the day prior about coming in, got confirmation, showed up. Then for the next hour and half sat in the waiting room waiting to be called. Finally had my name called and told I wasn't able to be scene, bro what the helly. Disappointing. read more

Dentist worked hard and professionally to fill 4 cavities. Very grateful. Scheduling was very good. Nice office girls.

I have been coming to Friendly Smile Dentistry for many years now and has always been a pleasant experience! The office is very clean, inviting, warm, and modern looking with modern (up-to-date) equipments. The staffs are very friendly, courteous, and professional, which reflects back the same to Dr. Liu as he is sincerely kind, caring, and courteous to all his patients !! For example, not just for myself but I can frequently hear from nearby rooms for other patients, Dr. Liu and/or his staffs would kindly check regularly with patients..."How are you feeling", "Is everything okay", "Do you feel any pain", etc. while attending to each patient !!! I have recommended Dr. Liu & his staffs to my friends, to my sister and to my wife (who are now also regulars to the office). Hence, I highly recommend Friendly Smile Dentistry to anyone looking for a good, friendly, caring, reliable, and professional dental office !!!! read more

I am disappointed by my phone interaction with an older receptionist this afternoon. I kept repeating thank you, and I appreciate you. She made me feel like I was a bother because I was asking questions for things I don't know much about. FYI, when it comes to dental care and services, you should be mindful that not EVERYONE grew up fortunate enough to receive dental cleanings, so this process is not only nerve racking, but new and intimidating to some people. Customer service will always speak volumes about a business, and I hope this business does not provide a similar experience to what I just endured over the phone. I am mindful that she has a job, is busy, and potentially getting overwhelmed. But by the looks at a few other reviews I am not the first person to comment about this same person. I never wish for anyone to get in trouble, but having a conversation about customer service and how to talk to people I think would go a long way. Will keep updated once I go in for my appointment, hoping this issue is fixed by then. read more

Nice office girls and very professional with good communication and Dr. Liu is very kind and professional. Great office experience.

After 15 years of not seeing a dentist out of fear, I made an appointment to see this dentist. Best decision I made. The Doctor and staff are the best! I fully recommend this office for any dental care. read more

The dentist and all his staff have been the nicest most caring place I have been to yet. Dr Lui always gives you recommendations but never forces you to have to do a procedure. If you have always been afraid of the dentist I truly think Dr Lui is for you! read more

Dr. Liu is an absolute master at what he does! Not only is he, basically, a genius, he comes across as kind and truly cares about his patients. I highly recommend giving this place a try before checking in somewhere else! Thank you Dr. Liu for correcting a problem that 3 other dentists weren't able to figure out! I was ready to spend another $6,000 and possibly getting a crown for each and every tooth, but I'm glad I was able to get it done, and done correctly for the cost of an office visit! read more

Best dentist I've ever been to. They are all very friendly from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. Made me feel very comfortable and made sure I was not in pain. They really look out for the patient. I will not go to another dentist as long as I'm in Modesto. read more

The one who answered my call first of was extremely rude , I simply wanted to see if I could book an appointment and instead I got a disrespectful female on the phone. read more

Super great experience. Very polite hygienist. The dentist was very helpful, knowledgeable, and supportive.

I've been coming to Doctor Liu for the past eight years with my husband and now five and three-year-olds. His hygienist are very accommodating if you have sensitive teeth. I've never had a bad experience. My husband has had to have more work done than me and they are very helpful in letting you know how much it will cost and how you can strategize with your employers dental coverage. He didn't have to get his work done immediately, so we got him double covered under both of our dental insurance, which in the end saved us about $1000 if not more. I've never had this good of service at any other dentist office. The amount of care and kindness here is unmatched! read more

This is honestly the BEST dentist I've been to! I had a not so great experience with my last dentist and he didn't properly numb me and it hurt horribly, but with this place Dr.Liu knows exactly what he's doing and let's you know what he's doing and explains as he goes.extremely friendly staff and they really work with you.ive had zero issue with them at all and it's so relieving.so thank you! and i would highly recommend them my mom also goes to them as well and feels the same way and is how I found out about them read more

Friendly Smile Dentistry - After - General Dentistry Near Me - Modesto, California

See all

Friendly and the dentist was kind and a great listener. I hadn't been in a while, but he was great. Ladies in the front office were very helpful. My husband liked also. read more

I have had the best dentist experience here. Dr. Liu re-defines dentist visit. He's friendly takes as much time as needed to educate you and present all options to you. He's funny and the best part, he's very sharing with his numbing injections. My visits are always completely pain-free. His front desk are always friendly, professional, and will explain billing to you if you ask. There's never a long wait. You're in and out of the office. Highly recommend read more

I had made my now 3rd appointment and arrived 10 mins late and to the doors being locked ?!!!!! I had to Uber here and was not my fault the Uber took wrong turns!!!. Now I have to order another Uber and this office is charging me a $50 late cancellation fee. Ridiculous and won't be returning, unprofessional!! I was still here and they should still be open even if I was 10 mins late !!!!!! I also called their phone and it said they are open but no one answered. read more

Office is clean, modern and well kept. Everyone at this office is so awesome! They are all super friendly and professional. I had been going to the same dentist in the Bay Area for YEARS and finally picked one close by. I'm so glad I did! I feel so comfortable, I don't dread visiting the dentist. I've never had a bad experience and I trust them 100%. I highly recommend them. read more

Great service! Got all my appts done in one single day in under 2 hours. Now, I can relax and just stay focused!

What a great dentist! EVERYONE here is very friendly (which I love). Dr. Liu is knowledgeable and kind. I feel very well taken care of. I am so thankful I found this place, I refuse to go to another dentist. read more

I called several dental clinics before and I simply give them my social, date of birth and employer and they are able to know what dental insurance do I have and what does it cover. The lady I spoke to today with an Asian accent doesn't seem to know what she is doing. Too many unnecessary questions. They just lost 3 possible patients today. read more

I love my dentist! I have never uttered these words before. I have gone from needing medications to get through even simple procedures, to sitting down in the dentist chair and having a relatively normal heart rate. This office is so polite and is always up front and clear about what is happening, and they are well aware of what insurance can provide and how to navigate that, which is something I find confusing at times. I love this office, but I would prefer a better parking lot, the spaces are tiny for these offices, and there aren't enough. read more

After years and years, I keep coming here. I moved to Southern California and back.. the only thing that was guaranteed in my schedule was my 6 month check up appointment. Everyone is still always so friendly, quick, efficient GENTLE and knowledgeable. From when you enter to when you leave, everyone is just always so great. Thank you Doctor and staff read more

My Family and I have been going here for 12 years or more, Dr.Liu and his entire staff have been wonderful, all of our needs have been met, every procedure explained to us, the cost are reasonable, great environment, nice and clean, very organized, it's just a great place to get your dental work done, I highly recommend it to everyone to get your dental work done here. Stellar service!!! read more

I'm actually excited to go back to the dentist! I felt nothing, and I have a lot of work that needs to be done. I am a huge baby when it comes to the dentist. I've been putting off getting my teeth fixed for a long time due to bad experiences at other dentist. The entire staff here is great! I definitely recommend this place read more

I am probably the world's biggest baby when it comes to dentist and I have been putting off finding a new dentist for way too long. I reluctantly searched yelp and found Friendly Smile because of their great reviews. As a bonus, they accepted Delta Dental that I have through work. They were professional and pleasant when booking appointment and followed up with a text. The office was spotless and clean. The X-ray was as super high tech and easy. The staff was caring and understanding as I am anxious. The doctor as gentle, understanding and all together awesome. I am so glad I found them. read more

Just FYI they don't take Denti-Cal. Sucks I was really looking forward to coming to this place after all the reviews. The receptionist was very nice and it is why I'm giving it 5 stars. read more

Dr. Lu is very knowledgeable and friendly. Also, unlike other dentists that try to tell you that you have "cavities" with no other explanation, he shows you pictures of said cavities. I have been to multiple dentists that try to scam you and this dentist makes me feel very comfortable. The dental assistants I've had have all been great, as well! When cleaning your teeth, they are extremely thorough. In addition, they are all very personable!! I love coming here, they easily make a reluctant appointment enjoyable! read more

Best dentist ever! Truly caring, well skilled in his work, and making one feel comfortable, believe me that is a challenge with me! From the time you step in and the time you step out you feel comfortable and important! Thank you Friendly Smile!! read more

If you are looking for a good dentist in Modesto, you will find it here at Friendly Smile Dentistry. The staff is nice, and the dentist found things my dentist in the Bay Area missed or told me was not an issue. They have great x-ray technology that is quick and pain free. They got myself, and my two kids out in about an hour or so, which is not bad at all! If you are looking for a new dentist or have moved to the area, you won't be disappointed. They even referred me to what sounds like a great orthodontist for my TMJ issue my other dentist said I didn't have. My mom was an RDA, so I know what TMJ symptoms are. When your jaw is snapping and not closing properly, that is NOT normal. Thank you Friendly Smile Dentistry! Keep up the good work. read more

I have been coming to Friendly Smile Dentistry for almost three years now and have never had a bad visit. When I first starting coming here my teeth were not in the greatest of shape and had a number of years of neglect from not visiting the dentist, but now with the awesome Dr. Liu and his staff they have brought my teeth full circle to being in tip top shape. I have had a number of filings done here that went super smoothly and there was no problems at all. I get 2 cleanings per year, which always leave my teeth looking top notch. I have also had a deep cleaning here that was done without a hitch. I have also had some more advanced work done here that has only added to my teeth and mouth health. I even bump into Dr. Liu in public ever once in a while when I am grocery shopping. He is one of the nicest guys I know and really knows his stuff. This the the dentist I would recommend to anyone in Modesto, which I have done and my friends that have gone to him have also been very happy with their visits. read more

We moved to Modesto 2 yrs ago. I had to basically look for all new providers that accepted my insurance and had great ratings because my anxiety goes hay wire when it comes to dentists. I brought my son here first. My son had a great experience. Dr Liu is amazing. He is funny. Outgoing and is always putting the patient first as all his staff there does. I made my appt next and let him know my fears. He made me feel so at ease and always asked how I was doing. I think I found our family dentist for sure! I reccomend this place! read more

Best dentist by far in Modesto My dentist is so caring thoughtful and polite If you need a really good dentist definitely give him a call read more

The doctor here is very nice and made me feel comfortable. The office is clean and modern. I've only been here for my cleaning and x-rays and so far I'm loving this dentist. read more

I have been to many dentists in Modesto and my wife and son went to Friendly Smile Dentistry and after I saw the treatment that they got I am going to get a appointment also they are very professional and knowledgeable. The attention that they got was a A+ I have never seen a sixteen year old so happy to go back to the dentist. read more

First off of I must say I never write reviews but I felt I needed to do one today I have always been afraid to go to the dentist until I went to dr. Liu he made me feel very comfortable told me exactly what they were going to do and was true to every single thing that was done I needed extensive work done on my mouth from years of not taking proper care and illness. I have a smile that I am proud of and that only comes from the great work the doctor Liu has done. He and his staff are sympathetic to your needs and your feelings and always makes you feel comfortable and make sure you are not in pain which I have never been since I've gone to him it's always nice to have a dentist that follows up with you in the following day after you've had a procedure done I highly recommend dr. Liu and his staff! read more

It had honestly been a long time since i have been to a dentist due to my phobia of having treatment done on my teeth, BUT i went in the other day and Dr.Liu and his assistant Dora were fantastic. She explained the whole process to me step by step and helped me feel comfortable. She was very gentle/knowledgeable and the doctor was super friendly also. I will never go to a different dentist again. Friendly Smile Dentistry is the best. read more

Dr. Liu's office is always very clean, all the staff are so friendly, his wife is sweetheart. I have go see him for over ten years, he is the bestThank you! read more
